Hey, another year-end list! Today, we’ve already seen Paste and Q name their 50 favorite albums of 2011. Now the British rock mag Uncut also chips in, giving a list that’s heavier on doom-and-gloom visions and old-timey sounds than anyone could’ve expected. The magazine’s album of the year, it turns out, is PJ Harvey’s Mercury winner Let England Shake, a perfectly defensible choice. And the list, unlike the Paste one, serves as a nice reminder that tough and adventurous sounds can coexist alongside more traditional sounds just fine; Gang Gang Dance and Tim Hecker look just fine next to Gillian Welch and Fleet Foxes. And on a personal note, it’s cool to see good Baltimore dudes Arbouretum, who have flown too far under the radar for too long, sneaking in at #49. Check out the list below.
